V. Eggs: Even if these products have been having the not-so-good reputation in the past years, eggs are still good since they contain quality protein. The yolk has minerals and vitamins. To obtain the minerals and vitamins in the egg yolk, one can have the egg white type of omelet with a whole egg.
